Private Track Day Rental of COTA

[RedMamba911]

I just got an email from the Circuit of the Americas (COTA) in Austin TX offering private track day rental of the entire F1 track. 36 cars max. $55,000 per day, but that includes lunch and breakfast! That works out to $1527 per driver. I haven't confirmed whether they would allow race cars instead of street cars, but I don't know why not. I would accually pay $1527 to spend a day on that track at speed if I could get 35 friends to caravan to Texas with me. Woohoo! Any takers?

Why only 36 cars? That most certainly is NOT based upon the FIA maximum allowed!

SCCA's first race there had 87 cars take the green flag in Spec Miata, so not sure why the 36 limit for track day.

Would you want your 458 Ferrari out there with some other squid? These guys need room! Plus the high per car costs keeps the riffraff (SM racers like me?) off the track.
